You could run 4 bulbs on a 10 but that would be sps territory so any Softies even on the floor would probably need to be shaded. Honestly if you were decent with some DIY a 3 bulb retrofit imo would be the perfect amount of light for a t5 setup on a 10 giving you the ability to house all corals with proper placement

Firstly you can buy fans that clip on the side. If that's not enough you'll have to either run your ac cooler in the house or buy a chiller which imo is pointless if its a 10g. I keep my ac running 24/7 and a consistent temperature to keep my tank where I want it but I'm in a small apt so it really don't cost much to cool the place and I need to for my dog anyways. Always nice to be in the ac myself too lol

Lol well my apartment complex stinks and I think my air is broken and they just don't wanna fix it lol, I have my 180G at 86į but that's bc its a Discus tank with a 500w titanium heater lol I might be okay with just using a heater and maybe keeping it in the coolest spot of the apartment
